Glad to hear that you got it working. There are a few options that you can set in the plugin code itself. You need to set your time zone and whether it looks for progams currently playing or also include shows that are going to start shortly. Just edit out the # for your time zone and edit out the # in the now / nowsoon section to make your choice. As it stands, the PublicRadioFan plugin only searches the site for stations that are streaming in a MP3 format. When the plugin was written that was all SlimServer was able to play in a streamed format. I am currently working on updating it to also parse out RealAudio and WindowsMedia streams since they can now be played as well. I have a rough hack in place where it can parse out and play either MP3, WM or RA stream. The only problem is that the plugin, as written, can only look for one format type at a time. I don't have enough perl skills yet to alter the code to look for multiple format type simultaneously. If anyone would like to give me a hand with it, I'll take all the help Ican get. I wrote to the original author of the plugin, but haven't heard back. --Tom Malsbury -- malsbury _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
